Chapter 2
Hey guys sorry for taking so long... Busy with Dragon Con and such. I'm still settling from it.
Alyssa: I'll take that into consideration. :3
The boys arrived at their location, Glitch, still nauseous, fell to his knees. "Are we there yet?" He asks. He was just glad the harrowing ordeal was over. His mentor didn't answer. "Mo?" He asks looking up at his mentor. Glitch wondered why Mo wasn't answering him; he now understood why. His mentor had a look of disbelief and confusion on his face. Mo looked as if he had seen a ghost. "Uh, Mo?" Glitch asks stumbling to get to his knees. His mentor still didn't answer. He tried waving his hand across Mo's face, but no reaction. Confused by his mentors look, he observes the world they are in. I was here he had the same reaction, "Where are we?"
What they thought was the 1980's, was a neo-dystopian war zone with boarded up dilapidated buildings many of which abandoned were destroyed and reduced to rubble. Mo picked up the heavy boombox, lugging it on his hip and they began to walk. They made their way through the boarded up neighborhood, passed the destroyed cars and the area Toprock avenue would be.
"Wonder what happened to this place?"
"Looks like a war happened," Mo responds. "I'll see if I can fix boomie." Mo says as he set down the boombox. He tried to turn it on but to no avail. Boomie blinks as if trying to turn on but automatically shuts off.
"Great, We're too late. How're we gonna get back now?" Glitch groaned.
"Looks like we're stuck here for now," Mo sighs, "Come on. Lets keep going." He tells his student as they continued to walk. Mo had no idea where they were going; he just wanted to find somewhere they could crash for the night. Mo had an eerie feeling that they were being watched, sensing a feeling of uneasiness as they walked. The sudden shuffling caused him to stop. He looks behind him but there was only a plastic bag blowing in the wind.
Glitch didn't like the way his mentor was feeling. He could see Mo was tense, "What is it?" He asked.
"Something doesn't feel right." Mo replies.
Glitch and his continued to walk, when he unknowingly kicks something metal. He looks down to see an head of a Tan-bot under him. "Hey Mo," Glitch calls to his mentor picking up the robot head and studying it.
Mo knelt down beside his student studying the robot head while also noticing the vertical slit in its metal skull. "It's... Eliot?
"Eliot? Who's Eliot?" Glitch asked.
"He was one of Tan's robots that danced with us." He looks around surveying the area. It was then he noticed the street partially littered with robot parts. Not just of Eliot's head and limbs, but also the head and limbs of the D-Cypher bots as well. "This is weird." He could tell it wasn't going to be easy finding a safe haven. It was at this point Mo hears shuffling again behind him, this time like footsteps. "You hear that?" he asked as they kept on walking forward hoping that they stalking would go away.
"No, why?" Glitch responds.
"It sounds like we're being followed." Mo whispered, his voice was stern. He couldn't be anything but suspicious. He didn't like the fact that they were being followed. He hears the shuffling again; this time accompanied by the sound of whispering voices. He looks behind him again, before going to the area where he heard the shuffling was coming from.
"It's probably a ghost." Glitch responds. It may have been but Mo doubted it although it aroused Mo's suspicion even more. Glitch watched as his mentor wander to the abandoned building. "Mo, where're you going?" Glitch yelled running after his mentor carrying the heavy boombox. "Hey wait!" Glitch shouts. Mo still didn't answer. He was fixated on the sounds as if they were calling him. Mo continued walking letting his ears lead him to an abandoned apartment. Glitch caught up to his mentor, "Dude this thing's heavy!" Glitch whined.
As he walks to the abandoned apartment, Mo noticed a shadow of a running foot disappearing. "You see that?" he asked his student.
"Dude, I told you it might be a ghost. Or a trap." Glitch got psyched by out his own answer. He had no idea what terror awaited for them in that building. It may be a trap. He also didn't like the idea of ghosts, much less being in a building with one. Or worse. They might become ghosts if they walked into a trap. This however, didn't stop Mo as he entered the apartment without hesitation. "Mo don't!" But his headstrong mentor went in anyway. Glitch had no choice but to follow, hanging his head as he trailed behind his mentor. "Were dead." He grumbled.
Once inside, the smell of mold and defecation filled their noses. "Ugh!" Glitch groaned. Mo seemed more interested in the sounds than the smell of the building. As the two looked around, and saw that, like outside, was littered with Tan-bot parts. A rat scurried over Glitches foot, causing him to drop the boombox and jump on Mo's back.
"What the!" Mo grunts as his student climbed onto his back.
"There was a mouse on me!" Glitch squealed in a whiny manner.
"Get off me!" Mo growls as he bucked Glitch off of him. A sound of female laughter echoed the hallway. The two looked at each other.
"I heard that." Glitch told his mentor. The two make their way down the hall when they hear footsteps running overhead. They made their way to the hallway. As they walked toward stairwell, a Tan-bot Head flies down the steps and lands in between them. Mo looked up where the tan-bot came from. "Don't even think about i-" He was cut off by his mentor's eagerness to find what was going on. "Why do I even try anymore?" Glitch he grumbled to himself. He wasn't surprised if they walked into a trap by now, seeing as his mentor was leading them into danger.
They finally reached the upstairs and make their way into an apartment dorm. They could hear the sound of metal feet get louder behind them, They hid behind the door and see three silver Tan-bots. These Tan-bots were different from Tan's usual bots in their dimension. The Tan-bots glowed either red or orange, and had expressionless faces. "They are here." One Tan-bot says.
The B-boys looked at each other puzzled, "They?" Glitch asked.
"I sense that there are more." Says another.
Glitch's heart jumped into his throat. "You don't think they mean us, do you?" Glitch asked. Mo shrugged. The three E-bots walk away from the apartment they were hiding in, not realizing that there were three more standing behind them.
"Halt!" shouts a computer voice. The two b-boys turn to see two Cypherbots and an E-bot standing behind them.
"I told you it was a trap!" Glitch shouted.
"Resistance is futile!"
